Hi, I’m Melanie! I’m a wife and a mother of six kids, and I love family time. I also love learning new things, and I’m always involved in a project. My family would describe me as high energy and passionate. Gardening has become a passion of mine in the last year, and I love growing my own fruits, vegetables, and herbs. I usually start projects and change things up as I get an idea…that is what happened with my garden. I started the traditional raised bed…and built a few, but luckily my picnic table needed to be re-purposed so I turned it into a garden bed. I loved not bending over so much, I began to design and build a true raised garden. Enjoy a glimpse into my garden and I hope it inspires you in some way to grow your own. Come on – it’s lots of fun!
